1) 2-DC audio level 4 (not xl)

2)2-Precision Power Pro-124

3)2-Cadence 12in Daytona

4)2-RE

These would be in two seperate boxes roughly 1-2 cubic feet in the back of a 89 Caprice Brougham...

Plus any feedback on the amp

- The DC Level 4 is a nice sub. They get relatively loud and sound good doing it. If you only have 2 cubes to work with, you'll need the 12" model.

- Avoid the Lanzar amplifier. It's junk. I'd suggest a mono amp.

- That Kenwood cd player only has 4 outputs.

I was iffy on the Lanzar amp it has been sitting around the garage along with that cd player, and well of course I wouldn't have minded saving some money but if they're not so good for this I'll sell them; as far as the amp have any suggestions for something being around 200 bucks?

I don't see you getting a clean 2,000 watts rms @ 1 ohm for $200 unless you're willing to buy used equipment. Even then, I don't see you getting an amp in great cosmetic condition...if that even matters to you. I'd suggest running a single Level 4 if your budget is that tight. You could even step up to the 15" model. Believe me, it'll surprise you. A friend of mine has a single Level 4 15" and it sounds great. And you can easily buy an amp to power it for $200...

If you decide to run a single Level 4 15", I'd take a serious look at this amp: MB Quart DSC1500.1 Amp: Mono - Car Amplifiers at Onlinecarstereo.com

The Discus series is a forum boner at the moment and I believe it's for good reason...

I'm not the most experienced when it comes to car audio, I can do it, but I'm def not the best...

I would like to have two twelves, my car is rather large and so is my trunk. I can get those Power Precisions new for 150 dollars and they seem decent would it be worth it to purchase those so I can afford a better amp?

It's a decision that I can't make for you, man. What I can do is tell you that I prefer the DC sub 10 to 1 over anything else you listed. I can also tell you that there's absolutely nothing wrong with running a single sub. A Level 4 15" in 3 cubes @ 35Hz powered by that Discus amp would do nicely...

mmk

I appreciate this help, my goal is too have something that sounds nice and is responsive cause I love good audio, but I also would like to turn it up a bit and make it shake.

Why do I never hear of like running a 12 and a 15 together??

The Level 4 would accomplish this.

Because mixing sizes or running different subs is not a good idea. This has been discussed at length. Do some reading on the subject...

I'll look into the level 4, 15'' then...

have an idea on how much that will cost?
